Portland | A Small but Charming Insect Zoo

Today, I visited Portland’s first live insect zoo—Portland Insectarium! This is a fun and educational place 🪲. Though it’s not very large, the variety of insects is impressive, from unique insect specimens to touchable live bugs. The staff were very friendly, and a knowledgeable lady patiently answered all our questions, making the visit even more engaging 💬. Here, you can not only observe insects up close but also learn about natural science through interactive games 🎮. Children can gently touch gentle bugs like stick insects and beetles, experiencing the wonders of nature ✨. The entire space is cozy and well-organized, making it perfect for family outings and weekend activities. Advance online reservation is required, and the 30-minute entry slot is just enough time to explore without feeling rushed. The ticket prices are budget-friendly: $9 for adults and $6 for children 💰. After the visit, you can take a stroll at the nearby Peninsula Park to enjoy a relaxing day 🌳. If you love nature or want to spend a meaningful weekend with your kids, this is definitely worth a visit! 🏆 #InsectParadise #FamilyActivities #WeekendDestinations #PortlandTravel #NatureEducation #FamilyFriendly #ExploreNature
